Who said that true tone flash have to be only pill shaped? If Apple have found an alternative/better away to engineer it, they are going to do it.
It boggles my mind how many people don't understand this!!!
They can at least make the lines the same color as the back

These look like a winner
I could care less.. I also couldn't care less.. not sure how I feel about this instance..

You're joking right? ...Or did you forget your contacts? The 4.7" has larger side-bezels than the 2 year old iPhone 5-design. Definitely not smaller. See, I'm sitting here with my gold iPhone 5S in hand, making it easy to compare the two. Even at that, a brand new iPhone in 2014 shouldn't even be compared to the 2012 iPhone, but rather the competing phones released in 2014!
YUCK.
I just hope the first dummy mock-up is far from real. The other photo posted in this thread from Macfixit looked miles better. I'd even stand in line for the Macfixit leaked phone.

iPhone 6
It honestly looks like an HTC phone and that phone got a lot of buzz for its looks so I don't think it's that ugly. Y'all just need to shut up and wait for the best iPhone yet to come out. I'd like to see you complaining then.

Don't let it get to you. Looking back at the comments here before various product launches, you will realise that the posters here aren't really any more informed or "enlightened" compared to the rest of the general populace out there.
The posters here have certainly been wrong more often than not. I remember when people here were actually clamouring for the first iPad to run OSX, or how it should run flash, or "insert Apple should do X" comment here, which has proven to be flat out wrong.
So yeah, many will whine, many will complain, many will gripe, but you know what? Whatever Apple releases, they will still shut up in the end and buy it.
As far as it looks, the 5S was the last of Jobs' approved devices. The new iPhone looks rather cheap and unappealing. I hope they will return to the best looking iPhone 7 within a year.
The battery test you linked to comes from Phone Arena.
http://www.phonearena.com/news/All-...ttery-life-chart-obliterates-the-rest_id56979
Several websites have used Phone Arena's results.
So, Phone Arena says that the LG G3 has great battery life.
Ars Technica (a well respected tech website) says that the LG G3 has bad battery life.
* It is one website against another.
(Interesting that Ars Technica also claims that the iPhone 5S has relatively better battery life compared with Phone Arena's tests.)
I don't see Apple making this device any larger than it needs to be. 5S was touted as having the ideal size screen for one handed use, so I would be shocked if iPhone 6 was anywhere near the size of a current 5" phone.
I like the overall look of the mock ups in terms of the rounded edges on the back but like most people on here, I would be disappointed to see the antenna breaks the way they are on these photos.
A thin phone with rounded edges and minimal bezel would be absolutely spot on for me.

Yea! like I don't give a **** what the thing will do or look like. I know Apple wouldn't release something that looks stupid or do anything less than the last product. No matter what, I'm buying whatever is unveiled in September.
Great post you could be bang on the money here. If it isn't Apple's plan, it should be!

All well and good but then you're using Android and you would have to wear your jeans half way down your ass and walk along with your shoulders slumped looking at your feet as you shuffle lol
Maybe the lines are for case manufacturers
Maybe the lines are so fat to let the case manufacturers know that they can't block the antenna in those areas

Probably not covers for protection of the iphone, but a cover for not revealing who is taking the pucture( no mirror)
Mine have always been covered by a case. I like my iPads naked, but my phone gets too much abuse/use not to have a protective case. So the ugly lines will be covered up anyway.
Have faith
Apple and Jony Ive have always come through in the design department.
Have faith. There has always been a lot of criticism surrounding new iphone or ipad designs. We all love the designs now.
If i look at the macfixit pictures, it looks 100% better than the early mockups. If you look at everything apple pro youtube, it already looks 100% better.
The sonny dicksons mockups look silly in comparison.
So have faith, the antenna lines will be more refined, etc.

Do you actually know this to be real??
Leaked parts that turned out to be true: iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPhone 5S, iPhone 5C... Why would this be any diferent ?
It's weird that all the mock-ups have larger bezels than this leak.
Maybe the screen is slightly bigger than 4.7"?
These are both obvious fakes.
I'm hoping though, these mock-ups going around aren't actually representative of Apple's line-up.
For one thing, if Apple's smallest model ends up being a 4.7", I'm gonna hold onto my 5S for as long as possible and hope Apple comes back to their senses before it's truly obsolete. The 4.7" won't fit in my pants, and I'm not going to start wearing a man purse just to carry my phone around. I also have no desire to use my phone two-handed. I have an iPad. A larger iPhone offers me nothing but inconvenience.
Ironically, if Apple were to switch to 4.7" as the minimum, it's going to force me to start looking for a new phone from a company other than Apple. Sadly it seems Apple was the last real hold-out for flagship phones in a small form factor. Android is probably a hopeless cause, but maybe there's a decent Windows Phone out there that's not massive.

The 4.7 incher has such a crummy camera... Apple is going to make us choose between better camera on 5.5 in or average camera on 4.7....
I know right! How could they go back to a 3MP camera!?! Ridiculous! How could Tim announce that crap with a straight face?!?
...oh wait.... We know absolutely nothing about the cameras yet. Let me get your jump to conclusions mat back out.
